If I remember correctly when you run darktable on MacOS it uses a "system" version of the path and not the user's path. We used to try and use which to find commands and it would work on the command line, but not from a script. Bill On Tue, Jan 28, 2020 at 11:45 AM August Schwerdfeger < aug...@s

If this is a Lua script trying to invoke 'exiftool', the Lua API uses the 'system()' function as its method of running external programs. I believe 'system()' is required by the POSIX standard to pass its argument to 'sh' rather than any shell the user might define. -- August Schwerdfeger aug...@s
